Question

Your poster was sold for 4250 pesos. You want to share this money with your two siblings. You and your younger sibling will each receive ¼ of the amount and the rest will be for your oldest sibling. How much money will each of you receive?

Answer 1

you and you’re younger sibling each receive 1062.5 pesos.
the oldest sibling will receive the rest (4250/2=2125) 2125 pesos.

Answer 2

First we need to divide this number by 4
4250/4= 1,062.50

This amount is equal to 1/4 so you and your younger sibling will receive that much.

The older sibling will receive 2/4 of the amount (the remainder) so we need to double this amount.

1062.5x2= 2125

so your older sibling will receive 2125 pesos and you and your younger sibling will receive 1062.50 pesos.
